And once Washington got hurt at tight end and DK Metcalf's out, they don't have...
I mean, it's Friar Muth.
And also their offensive line was hit and miss.
So I thought he made them much better in the red zone.
I thought he made them smarter.
They turned it over less.
But he is not somebody that wants to sit in there, and I do not blame him at all.
There's things I would do early in my career I'm not doing now.
So I kind of get the old quarterback, but that's the downside.
There's only one old quarterback, Matt Stafford.
who is willing to sit in the pocket an extra second and get absolutely drilled.
Stafford, much to his peril, is really an old guy willing to take shots, and he gets dinged up for it.
So the Steelers, I mean, if you think about this, the Steelers were led in catches last year by a running back,
Some of that is Aaron dumping it off, and some of that is they don't have any pass catchers.
And he had 14 more catches than anybody else.
So, you know, it's pretty lean.
Washington gets hurt.
DK Metcalf gets suspended.
And you're like, there's just nobody to throw to.
So I thought overall he was okay.
